Flora & Fauna at Peninsula Gallery
A lifetime resident of the Eastern Shore, M. Joyce Zeigler’s old
family farm is now Tuckahoe State Park in Queen Anne’s County, Maryland.
It was here, as a child riding a feisty workhorse through the countryside,
that she first started to store up images of fields, flowers, wildlife,
water and birds that would later become subjects for her brush.
Joyce Zeigler’s show opens at the Peninsula Gallery, 520 E. Savannah
Rd in Lewes on November 29 with a reception to meet the artist from
5-7p.m. For further information call 302-645-0551.

Corporation, a non-profit organization of community and business leaders.

How To Draw Dogs
How to Draw Dogs is the latest showing by Rehoboth Beach artist Andrew
Criss. The collection features over 20 paintings by Criss, all with a
canine theme. "I wanted to have a little fun, and paint with a more
humorous and graphic style than usual," says Criss, who is known for
his portrait and landscape oil paintings, "and it was a great excuse
to spend time with a bunch of dogs."
How to Draw Dogs will hang at Nassau Valley Vineyards in Lewes for the
month of December. The public is invited to the opening party on Saturday,
December 6 from 5-8 p.m. For more information call 302-644-9649.
